that's the last phone I had,

Oh, I googled the wrong number
I had that phone too. Lasted ages unlike the crap I have now.

they've realised it's not so hard to convince most people to get a new phone every year,
so there's not much point in making them last any longer than that.

True
But I would like a phone that will last the length of my contract without having a fit.

Why?
And there's plenty of phones which do what you want, usually aimed at business customers. Nokia does loads.

I looked up the wrong number
I don't want a business phone though, I don't care about email, music or internet. I don't even care about text messaging, I just want a phone that rings.

Did I say they were business phones?
I said they're aimed at business customers.
